Adam’s family are also planning to release dozens of balloons at midnight outside Great Northern on Saturday December 27 to mark a year since he disappeared.

Chris said: “We want to do something to remember our son who died in such unfortunate circumstances. Had Angels been on the streets that night, things may have been very different.

“Adam’s friends who were out with him that night also want to do their bit by going on patrol a year on from when they lost their friend.”

The teams currently patrol Deansgate and Deansgate Locks, but plan to expand their patrols.

Rachel Goddard, the chair of Manchester Street Angels and a volunteer, said: “The support we have had from the police, the Manchester Pub and Club Network, and those enjoying nights out in the city centre has been absolutely amazing.

“We now have a base at the offices at Great Northern thanks to the generosity of management there and already we have helped dozens of people get home safely.”
